So, I got out of the saltwater hobby only to get sucked back in to a nano tank at work a year later.
But, work is getting very busy so I don't have time for it anymore, and I'm tired of fighting the hair algae and spending money on it here and there, so I'm looking to sell it all.
Here's what I have:
1. 20 gallon long tank with a decent amount of live rock, a whole bunch of bright green starburst polyps, various mushrooms, a leather, another cool coral I forget the name of, and two small percula clowns. Oh, and a peppermint shrimp and a couple of hermit crabs, an emerald crab, and various serpent stars and the like.
2. Coralife Lunar Aqualight 2x65 (130 watts) 50/50 bulbs & blue LED moonlights. 10 months of use on bulbs.
3. Medium aquafuge with 18 watt 50/50 Coralife hood.
4. Pair of microjet pumps for circulation.
5. Prizm Deluxe hang on back skimmer with surface skimmer attachment, media tray, and a float switch in the top (can be used with a controller, not included, to turn the pump off if the skimmate chamber gets full).
6. A nice submersible heater.
7. 5 gallon bucket for mixing saltwater with a small submersible heater and a pair of Maxijet 1200s (one for mixing, one for pumping the new water up into the tank).
8. Various odds and ends (a little net, some stainless tongs, New Life Spectrum fish food, some Instant Ocean salt, a turkey baster for cleaning rocks, a feeding ring for the clowns, some ph & ammonia test strips, etc).
Problems: The tank is stable and has been running fine, but I can't beat this hair algae. It's driving me up a wall and I'm tired of dealing with it. Fish and corals are healthy though some of the mushrooms are getting crowded by the hair algae.
Price: $300 takes all. I've invested twice that.
If anyone is interested, post a reply here and I'll get some pictures taken and will post them next week. Would be a great little tank for someone else's office who has more time and patience than I do.
